Okay, John. I often place orders with Chris @ Tenkara Bum, and I'll be happy to help you out with shipping the EZs. I'll need a mail address, but I can get that from you when appropriate. ~Paul

You can get a six foot length for a couple of bucks at just about any store, they are easy to cut and work great.

I did a google search recently for "tenkara line spool" and found one pic of a guy that made his own "EZ Keepers" using two big buttons and some elastic cord. Gave it a try and in my mind it works great. The best part: I took/stole/borrowed/pillaged the materials from the wife's sewing room when she wasn't looking. So it was free. That and I ended up making a couple of wooden line spools like some of the other pics I saw. The work great for storing the line between fishing sessions.

Flyfishing is a drug. It's addictive, it can be expensive, not many others will understand it, it is possible to get others hooked, and everyone has a favorite place to get their fix, but there's no hangover in the morning (from the fishing at least).
There is a new product out not like the EZ Keeper but, you start off putting your hook in it and then winding you line and tippet. The hook is held by a magnet and is inside the keeper so you can't snag yourself or anything else. I wish I could remember what it was called
